Bluebird, Bluebird

Isaac gives his full confession of what happened to Michael. Isaac was in the woods when Michael and Missy were confronted by Keith. Isaac visited the icehouse to deliver the news about Michael to Wally. Isaac overheard the questions Michael asked Geneva about Joe’s death. After the beating, Isaac smashed the board into Michael’s head and dragged his body into the bayou. He drove the car to Wally who told him he would handle it. Isaac acted out of a compulsion to keep the secret he holds about who killed Joe Sweet.

Isaac’s confession reveals the truth of Joe Sweet’s death. Wally entered the café drunk, rambling on about how the café should have been his and he had a pistol. Wally asked Joe when he would sell the café. Joe demanded he leave, but Wally continued asserting that he could just take it if he wanted. Joe told Isaac to call the Sheriff, but Wally ordered him not to move. Joe calmly asked him to leave, and Wally began a rant about how he hated his father for giving the land to Geneva. Wally insulted Joe by bringing up Lil’ Joe. The two exchanged heated words and Joe moved to hit Wally.
